We gather because singing together lifts something in us. There’s laughter, warmth, and a sense of lightness that carries through our rehearsals and performances.
We value togetherness. WOSOSI is a kind, open, and supportive space where everyone feels seen, heard, and part of something bigger.
We care about the craft of singing and the meaning behind the music. Growth, richness, and diversity of voices are part of the journey.
WOSOSI World Song Singers is an a cappella choir in Wellington, New Zealand, that brings the world’s rich singing traditions to you.
From songs that celebrate peace, stand up for freedom or yearn for loved ones lost, we embrace the power of music and shared human experience.
For us, singing isn’t only about voices and notes. Rehearsals often include breath, movement, rhythm, and moments of stillness.
We explore sound in ways that invite awareness of the body and the group as a whole.
Music here is something you feel as much as hear.
Our repertoire includes songs from many cultures and in many languages.
We take time to learn where songs come from and what they carry, approaching them with curiosity and respect.
The meaning behind the music matters, and audiences often tell us they can feel that when we sing.
People usually join WOSOSI through an open evening, where you can experience a rehearsal and get a sense of how we work together.
It's a chance for you to feel whether the choir is right for you, and for us to sense how it feels to sing together.
When it feels aligned on both sides, the journey continues from there.
